    Thank You, I don't have that exact model, but I did what you said and I think all of the gunk I cleaned out will fix the issue, and I am one to "wash" before I load.

    remember to rinse only hard debris before washing. a washer with dirty dishes actually works better. try using a few drop of Dawn ultra in the prewash cup.

The lower spray arm in my Samsung dishwasher is getting stuck on the lower basket somehow and not turning during wash, is there a way to raise the lower basket a little??

The clearance is governed by two things

The height of the shelf and the height of the spray bar.

Pull out the basket and check the screws holding the rails to the body.

Remove the spay Bar and check the bushings and whatever dictates the height. It should spin, but shouldn't wobble.

Frigidaire Model FDB780RCB0 I am getting water in the machine but it seems the arms are not turning what can I do to get that fixed?

The pump in the dishwasher is supposed to provide enough water pressure to turn the spray arms and make them rotate. The pump is faulty and not giving enough pressure or the arms are stuck.
Try spinning the arms, if they rotate smoothly, you will need to replace the pump.

The dishwasher dispense does not open during wash cycle

Either you have hard-water build-up on the lid or latch mechanism, or else you have a bad dispenser. If it's the first problem, run a bottle of Dishwasher Magic in your machine and see if that fixes the problem.

Why are the items on bottom rack not being cleaned properly

If is clean dishes in the upper basket, I conclude that the pump produces enough pressure what means that the lower spray arm for some reason does not rotate and because that washing result is bad. Before washing I would check the lower spray arm rotates freely and after that open the door during washing and check if the lower spray arm rotates. Sometimes, the holes in the spray arm clog and disable turning which leads to poor washing results in the lower basket.

What temp does a dishwaher need to be

Most manufacturers recommend inlet water temperature of 120 degrees F. During the main wash cycle, the dishwasher will heat that up to between 140? and 165?, depending on what cycle and options are chosen.

Water is not coming out of upper spray arms

Remove lower basket completly put a bag around the arm that goes to the back of the machine (this will stop water going to the lower arm. Put the lower basket back into the machine and set the rinse cycle, this should clear the blockage if it does not your in trouble!

Loud Knocking/Ticking Sound During Cycle

have you lowered the top basket into the lower position? if so the spray arm will knock the cutlery /plates. it sounds as though it is a spray arm problem. remove them and put it in wash to see if the noise goes. if not there may be an obstruction in the wash pump, this is a stripdown job then.
